air of exclusiveness. Some teachers call these cotillon clubs, dances de luxe, etc.
In starting her classes, the newcomer should teach adults the round and square dances, with an occasional special event, like a cotillon with inexpensive favors. The children—and their mothers—will want to have fancy dancing included in the afternoon's work. A girl who has not enough classes to keep her busy in her own town may be able to go to smaller towns within commuting distance for weekly or semi-weekly lessons.
The girl who combines elocution with physical culture must be resourceful and able to arrange amateur entertainments that give pupils a chance to appear with credit, and parents and friends an opportunity to admire and applaud. The girl who can stage-manage or produce small plays and allow other local talent to shine therein is very much more apt to succeed than the girl who casts herself for the star rele. Upon such little evidences of tact and good will does the teacher of physical culture and dancing or elocution build up remunerative classes. They are to be found in nearly all small cities, especially in the mid-West, West and Southwest.
